About this property

Beautiful waterfront beach house

Carrickalinga would easily have one of the most beautiful beaches in Australia at its doorstep. Set an hour south of Adelaide, it is within walking distance to Normanville, and a short drive to Yankallilla. Day drives can be taken to Victor Harbour, Cape Jervis, or to visit Deep Creek Conservation Park. Perhaps just sit back and relax on the balcony, sipping wine watching the setting sun after a day of swimming in the clear waters. The choice is yours.

Carrickalinga is located near the town of Normanville, with two beaches, the north and south beach. The northern beach which this house overlooks, is truly beautiful. Crystal clear waters, with regular visits by dolphins, there are rock pools on the point between the two beaches where kids can explore for crabs and catch fish. The beach is often protected against the winds, with a walking / running track from Normanville past the front door of the property. Alternatively, on a lovely day walk along the beach for half an hour to the jetty at Normanville for a coffee.

We are offering the use of a lovely large home. The decking has views straight over the beautiful Carrickalinga beach. Reverse cycle air conditioners both upstairs and downstairs, as well as a ducted evaporated air conditioner upstairs if you prefer to have the doors upstairs open to the sea breeze.

Please note there is no Wifi supplied.

All beds are freshly made with clean towels supplied.

The upstairs living area has a well appointed kitchen open to the dining and main lounge area with television. Spencer gulf is visible north to west, with the setting sun visible to the west. Also upstairs are two queen size bedrooms and a renovated bathroom with bath. The large deck overlooking the north beach at Carrickalinga has an outdoor setting with seating for all. Unfortunately, due to gusts and umbrellas being left open and destroyed, we do not have an umbrella on deck.

Downstairs another large living area, one queen size bedroom, one bedroom with 2 king singles, and a third bedroom with 2 king singles and 1 set of bunks. The wc and the shower are separate for easier use.

There is a large laundry with clothes washing machine, clothes dryer, another shower as a back up, with access to the enclosed rear yard and clothes line, which, unfortunately, children seem to want to swing from. We do repair it but this seems to happen continually, so be prepared for a crooked clothes line.

You can not get closer to the beach!

Great seaside getaway
This property has a stunning location with gorgeous views to the sea and coastline. The perfect get away location to relax for family groups. Upstairs living-dinning area has great character and is well furnished for multiple families to comfortably hang out. Aspects of the lower level were tired and in need of renovation and stone bench top in the kitchen is unfortunately stained giving it an impression of not being clean. Otherwise the kitchen is well provisioned. A big thank you to the property manager Sue for her assistance with rescheduling our booking and for answering all our questions so promptly. Would thoroughly recommend this property!

Beautiful and ideal location
We loved our view and balcony! Great upstairs. Listing is how it is pictured, although we had a few technical appliance faults. Top dishwasher did not work, had to have the repair man out to look. He also said the fridge/freezer was not at temperature and was frozen over. The bathroom basin was also not draining and he had to fix this. The oven also did not turn on for our Christmas meal! Communication with host was good, although the home needs some upkeep and TLC in terms of making sure the drains and kitchen appliances are functioning/fridge can be at its correct temperature.

Perfect 4 day weekend down with a coastal view
We had six couples, with four children under two years of age. Very convenient being right on the beach to get the kids back and forth from the accommodation. Modern beach house with great inside and outside entertaining areas. Beautiful location and small drive from other great locations

Carrickalinga Beach House
This property is in an absolutely perfect location. Close proximity and easy access to the beach. Beautiful views of the beach from the balcony and open plan living area. The house itself is a little tired. Needs a bit of a refresh: a good dust and repaint. The house was tidy. It was relatively clean but certainly wasn't spotless. Shower could've probably been a bit cleaner under the glass door seal etc. The beds were comfy and lovely soft bed linen. Unfortunately when we went to use the bbq, most of the bbq burners didn't work, and the one small burner that did work was quite dirty which was frustrating. Overall we enjoyed our stay. A stunning location, a bit of a tired house.

Not very clean
Please accept my honest review as We are very very disappointed with the dirty property. I don’t know if the owners hire cleaners in and wether they are aware of the terrible state of the property. The outside is rundown and unkept. The couches are so disgusting and dirty that we had to put blankets on a couple of them. There was dog hair on the pillows and the windows were so so dirty, they look like they weren’t washed for months. I went and got window cleaning gear and washed them . The kitchen coffe machine milk wand was grotty and skirting board and walls and doors all needed a wipe and wash. There were dusty surfaces and some of the cupboards were dirty inside with all sorts like crumpled up bedding in one. We bought a family here to spoil them with a holiday and we were very disappointed with the state of the property. We are a clean family and the house could use a good few hours of scrubbing and cleaning. Very very dissatisfied given the amount we paid for your property. We contacted the owner and they offered us a refund for any nights we didn’t want to use, but it was difficult to find another property in the area at such short notice. The bed linen was super clean and smelled freshly washed. The location is amaaaaaazing and if only the property was up kept and clean we would rehire every year!

Great location, cleanliness could be improved
-Loved the split level -Kitchen is quite small however well equipped -Location is great, very close to shops at Normanville -disappointed with cleanliness of property, spider webs everywhere (they would have been there weeks/months) and rangehood was quite dirty -no wifi -owners really need to clean out the cupboards downstairs as it has old clothing, and junk and mess inside. I went looking for another blanket and pillow.

Beautiful location, views to die for. Lovely open plan living. So close to the beach. Plenty of games and puzzles. Sue the host was very obliging, and helpful. The only thing missing was an umbrella or some shade on the deck. Also there is a coffee machine. So don’t stress coffee lovers.
